I do plan to live blog the election returns tonight, but I also hope to watch Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles off my computer too. See, my DVR didn’t record it last night. It said it was going to, but it didn’t for some reason. And it’s not like there were two other shows in the same time slot it recorded instead. So now I’ll have to watch the episode off of the FOX website, but watching a show off a laptop sitting on a TV tray just isn’t the same as watching it in HD on my big screen with digital sound. Anyway, I’ve never felt so betrayed by a piece of my home entertainment system before, and I just had to get that off my chest. I know I should be concerned about the election right now, but I can’t trust my DVR anymore… and despite all the hype, which do you think is more likely to directly affect me?

I would have more sympathy, Frank, but that show sucks. It really sucks. Hard.
[You suck! -Ed.]
Clearly a democrat plot to interfere with the conservative blogosphere!
I watched it on TiVo last night. Started it 20 minutes late to skip through all the commercials. Except the ones for Sonic.
Obviously, Skynet has infiltrated your DVR. Be careful.
There is no fate but what we make for ourselves
You need a HTPC. That way, you can download AND see it on your big, fancy TV.
Since I don’t have a wide-screen hi-def TV to watch it, I’m counting on the Obamessiah to ‘redistribute’ some of yours to me!
My DVR did the same thing. I’ll be at work tonight, I was thinking about taking a personal day to watch the news and blog, but I figured today going to work after voting will be better for my mental health.
Yeah the election won’t directly affect you. ‘Cept that I don’t have a DVR, so BO can spread your wealth to me. Would that be direct enough? I just repaired my old projection HDTV, cuz I could. But still, yours sounds nicer, so. . .
Dude, it’s on Hulu. I know that’s about the same as the FOX website (but totally better, I’m sure). I’m just wondering how you could have possibly not known that.
And, well, the episode was alright. It was no season premiere, but Cromartie finally got to do something again.
If you can’t trust DVR, what is the world coming to??? Have no fear, The Hope that Brings the Change of Hopeful Change plans to give to each according to his need for a personal IT specialist. Hang in there, dude.
Just go to eztv.it and download the HD version, then plug the laptop into the big screen. Easy.
I, for one (not “The One” – I’m rarely for anyone else I don’t know), am looking forward to Frank’s live blogging tonight. This is it, folks. (Damn, am I that old?) I wanna say some really outrageous (but tasteful) things during the live blog.
The Sarah Corner Cornicles? This show sux so bad its beyond cornprehension. Its like every bad script line ever written rolled up put in a bag like the corn in the bag that you toss in the game cornhole. Its really that bad. So points off IQ rating for that!
Woot Paleomedic got that one right! GeeSus losers hard up for something to watch roll around to that one. Uh but that would be anyone who has cable or satellite….turds festooned with corn. The difference is with HD the corn kernels are clear on Sarah Corner Cornicles.
[You’re not allowed on my blog anymore. -Ed.]
You should buy some corn chips and corn bugles to eat whilst you watch this festooned turdy of a crapfest show.
mmm… very shensitive about the corn comments directed at the cornicles of Sarah Corner.
May I suggest a pound of fudge to coRnsole you as you watch Sarah Corner?
My DVR used to do crap like that after every daylight saving time adjustment, and I’d have to delete all my scheduled recordings and set them up again. Fortunately, they fixed it last year and I abandoned my plans for vengeance…for now.
Master Shake – in the case of this show the DVR is doing everyone in the world a favor. The sooner people stop watching SCC the sooner it stops being produced. Its smelling the place up!
Freemon Sandlewould, are you from the midwest?
Why do you ask SpacyMonkey? I don’t play cornhole if that is what you are asking…….
Frank, after tonight, we need Fred Thompson to gather all the conservatives in one place (he can do it) and give this speech. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vMfCv5J0g8

Never be let down by your dvr again…
Anyone watch Big Bang Theory last night? “I’m invoking the SkyNet clause in our relationship.”
So, ah, Frank? Which Post is your live blog going to be under? And will there be competition from Cadet, Basil, SarahK or Harvey over the top of yours causing yours to be buried again?
Frank, I sympathize with you on the SCC/DVR issue. Despite what Freeman says, I like it. I never expected a Terminator storyline to rival Shakespeare. I’m entertained. I’m just sorry you couldn’t be entertained in big-screen HD.
Election?
You could say that the Sarah CoRnRoll Cornicles do not rival Shakespeare. That is unless they had a turdrolling contest that came to an inglorious coRnclusion with really really really second rate actors that hack out pithy recycled food lines. For instance if the queen in mcbeth had a foodbaby with corncluster birthdefects.
Hey I just realized you can watch the Sarah CoRnville Cornicles with Senator John CoRnIn of Texas.
You really should have some way of rigging your laptop to your TV. I’d be surprised if there isn’t one already…
